Newbie. Just checking in
Just a new guy checkin' in.
Hello to dad300- thanks for the link. I'm from Calais/St.Stephen and looking to start up a tank once a couple of personal things are cleared up. 200 gal (ish) reef tank. I had one started when in St.John's 35 odd years ago (military) now I am hunkered down here. |

I love that area! I will be heading up to Machias in a month or so to visit and relax. I would have to say my favorite beach by far is Jaspar Beach, and the hike around Quoddy Head is amazing!

new tank project
Well if this gets to go as I want it to, the tank has grown to 330 gallons with 100-150 gallons in the sump. Tank gets to be 60"(L) X
36"(W) X 36"(H). There's a perfect place to fit it into. The sump is a large fish tote in the basement with smaller totes inside with spacers to set the water levels. Need to find a good place to get acrylic. Floor needs some help of course (100 year old house) I think this aquarium stuff could be like software (expands to use all available resources) Any way it is started now woody |

Welcome! I'm relatively new here, too, and this is a great bunch of people.
That tank sounds like it's going to be something! Post some pictures as it's coming along. I'd love to see how it progresses. Sonya |

are you building your own tank or looking for a manufactured one?

Want to build. Nothing too hard about building, just have to plan and plan. Like Bob Vila says "cut twice-measure once"
